Discussing various ways Putin could be prosecuted for war crimes, or for the crime of aggression (starting a war without valid justification). All approaches face obstacles.

I read of an argument that Russia was never properly authorized as the successor of the Soviet Union's permanent membership in the Security Council. If Russia can be replaced there, it would unlock many things.

Dubya set the US on a policy of undermining and weakening the International Criminal Court. (Perhaps he feared being tried for the crime of aggression.) Will the US now give the ICC support?

When Russia took Ukrainians from Mariupol to Russia, some wanted to go. Others were effectively compelled to go.

Gaza is facing a water crisis: nearly all of its water is undrinkable.
